#22 - be kind to yourself

What this episode covers

WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE!!  Research has found that by developing our compassion we can create positive effects on our brain and immune system. It’s so effective that there’s even a type of talking therapy devoted to iT. Self-kindness Try to be caring and understanding with yourself, rather than being harshly critical or judgemental. Just because you might have more time of your hands right now, that doesn’t mean you have to be ‘doing’ more. If you start to feel your inner critic creeping in, focus on being gentle with yourself instead. It could be helpful to try to change how you are viewing your situation. Tell Yourself, “I Am Enough”. We’ve all had times in our lives when we’ve thought, “I’m not good looking enough, or smart enough, or strong enough to get what I want.” Stop it with the “I’m not enough” self-talk and replace it with the following; “I’m enough, just as I am.” “I’m worthy.” “I deserve to be happy.” “I deserve to have everything I want.”
